Going above and beyond with Inkscape 1.0 (Libre Graphics World)

([Development] May 15, 2020 12:39 UTC (Fri) (corbet))


Libre Graphics World is running [1]an extensive interview with several Inkscape developers. " I'd say we're at the point of supporting SVG as much as possible, but we've mostly given up trying to add editing features to the SVG specification. As the W3C is dominated by web browsers who don't need multi page or connectors. I dare not say much more about W3C-specific things. I know that I'm personally disappointed that Inkscape's considerable importance in the SVG creation space does not lend itself to getting the feature we intend to build into Inkscape into the actual SVG specification. This does lead to the problem that going forwards we're likely to have browser incompatibilities. "
